Driver Warnings

WARNING

POTENTIAL HAZARD
Going down a hill improperly.
WHAT CAN HAPPEN
Driving downhill improperly could cause loss of control or

ATV overturn.
HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD
Always follow proper procedures for going down hills as

described in the Owner's Manual. See page 104.
NOTE: A special technique is required when braking as you go downhill.
Always check the terrain carefully before you start down any hill. Shift your weight backward. Never

go down a hill at high speed.
Avoid going down a hill at an angle, which would cause the vehicle to lean sharply to one side. Go

straight down the hill when possible.
